Yea, they need friends. I need a friend. Will you be my friend?
lol second time today that i find and watch a cool video, not long before it comes out on kotaku
brilliant
that was awesome
That was freaking awesome. Mad props.
i hated it!
holy hell, this rules all that is rulable!
Halo 3 is COD4's bitch. Couldnt agree more!
LOL That was awsome!
Next time I hear "powned" (by the way, "pwned" is still read "owned") I'm going to break some knee caps. Words like these were never meant to be said aloud, and it just completely ruined that for me.
that high five noise scared me.
Nice work... good dialog.
'I wud insert my floppy into her disk drives'
LoL
See, anyone who doesn't think this is funny hasn't played Portal. We had a guy at work who didn't understand the awesomeness of the Portal Song - he had the nerve to cal it "J-Pop Silly Babble". ABSURD. Of course, once he beat the game he joined in on the sing alongs.
"see you in hell cube"
xD
Hilarious, but they almost killed WCC for me. I can't love anything that annoying!
this made my day.
"will there be cake?"
"f*** you"
Great job to whoever made it
Ha! I love the War Games reference!
i love this!
haha...best shit ive seen all week. the douchey companion cube was class, too.
"balls."
The best thing happened at 3:09 pm! DOO DO doDOo DOOOOO
Oh, that's great.
Of course all decent A.I.'s play global thermonuclear war.
Halo 3 does pwn COD4!
loved it
LOL! ***** 5 STARS! fantastic! ^,^
amazing
You would not believe how many times out of nowhere I will start humming Still Alive with friends that know the game. It's scary sometimes. That scene was so accurate.
@brynnflynn: Where the hell did he get "J-Pop Silly Babble?"
Roflfol!
Great work!
this is GREAT!
I guess I'm a minority. Did not find it amusing.
"What should I say now?" "Come out bitch!"
Love it! Moar pls
Its funny.. but a bit.. i dunno. as wierd as it is to say, out of character for the turrents. I mean in the game they are all innocent and childlike, and in this they really are just internet nerds.
Hahah, nice reference to WarGames
I still love the companion cube xD >.>
This was great, too many quotes in my head right now =0
balllllllllllllllllllllllllllllls.
They're the new Bob Hope and Bing Crosby.
An absolute work of genius. It's the best thing I've seen this year.
It's tantamount to Dick in a Box imo.
Will there be cake? Hilarious. XD
Better than everything Roosterteeth have ever done combined!
Although to achieve that they only had to make me smile (as opposed to just glowering in contempt).
Keep it coming I say.
I'm loving it!
Is there a chance for a sequel?
yes yes, moarmoarMOAR!!!
that was great
That was actually much, much funnier than I expected.
pure genius.
haha, insta-classic!
again, never will there be cake. even the turrets are under these false promises.
Awesome. Totally awesome.
@TokeYo: @scotty: +1. continuation, please!
Proof that gamers are wittier than 75% of Hollywood writers.
The theme song humming was great, the rest not so much...
Doesn't fit the "character" of the turrets in the game the slightest also the rather crude, juvenile humor of the video can't hold a candle to the well written humor from the game.
That was awesome, XD would watch again.
wow... portal is awesome.
Hey it's gettin kinda hot. OH MY GOD I'M SORRY FOR EVERYTHING!!!
This is made out of pure awesome and win.
I'm with Rangermoose. I'm lucky enough to never have heard anyone say "pwned" out loud, and it's a good thing too because it would take all my willpower to not slap the candy out of them. As for the movie...it was okay, funny in parts. I prefer the idea that the turrets are these innocent little childlike AI's doing their jobs, as opposed to foulmouthed frat-nerds stuck in a nine-to-five existence. 6/10 Companion Cubes.
That was brilliant. Best bit - the humming. Or the ending.
Yeah right that's nothing like me. I'm way more angry.
Too good.
Awesome!
That was awesome. About time we let the under appreciated turrets have their say.
Blech....
LOL and when I say I laughed out loud, I mean my cat is staring at me.
I think the voices were out of style but the clip as a while was pretty damn funny.
The pwned thing was the only negative for me. It's not that I mind hearing pwned being spoken, it's just that when i read it, it seems like it should be pronounced 'pawned', as in 'pawn shop'. Hearing 'powned' just sounds bleh and reminds me of cornpone, even though I have no idea what cornpone is or if I even spelled it correctly. Besides that though, good work.
Guys, I'm a huge nerd and I can admit that.
However, I'm not that huge of a nerd that I sit here and get emotionally upset over the pronunciation of the word "pwned". What the hell is wrong with you? It's not even a fuckin' word! XD
That being said, the video was awesome and I hope more people say "powned" just to get under the skin of guys like Rangermoose.
Pure Gold.
I had to watch it again. Please let there be more of these.
Funny as hell
@Genocyde:
I think the issue seems to fall on whether the viewer hates all people who pronounce it "powned", or the viewer realizes that these characters are based on those people, and therefore _must_ pronounce it that way.
That was awesome. Just... awesome. I el oh el'd
@Genocyde: i hear that.
besides my friends and i say it all the time.
the only winning move is not to play
thank you funny people of the interweb, that was brilliant
